New submission from Jeroen Demeyer <j.deme...@ugent.be>:
PyEval_GetFuncName is bad API because 1. It hardcodes a limited number of function classes (which doesn't even include all function classes in the core interpreter) instead of supporting duck-typing. 2. In case of a "function" object, it relies on a borrowed reference to the function. 3. It is returning a C string instead of a Python string, so we cannot return a new reference even if we wanted to. Since PyEval_GetFuncName and PyEval_GetFuncDesc are always used together, we might as well replace them by a single function with a proper API. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 348255 nosy: jdemeyer, vstinner priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: Replace PyEval_GetFuncName/PyEval_GetFuncDesc versions: Python 3.9 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue37645> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
